Accompanied only by three Amazigh Muslim men and their camels  Scottish explorer Alice Morrison set off to find a hidden world. During her journey along the Draa river  she encountered dinosaur footprints and discovered a lost city  as well as what looked like a map of an ancient spaceship  all the while trying to avoid landmines  quicksand and the deadly horned viper.  Few places better illustrate the reality of climate change and the encroachment of the desert than a dried-out riverbed  but this also means a constant search for the next source of water. Meeting other nomads as they travel  Alice also gets to hear a side of their lives few ever access  as the women would never be allowed to speak to men from outside their community. They explain the challenges of giving birth and raising children in the wilderness. As the journey continues  Alice learns to enjoy goats trachea sausages  gets a saliva shower from Hamish the camel as he blows out his sex bubble  and shares riddles round the camp fire with her fellow travellers.  Walking with Nomads reveals the transformative richness of the desert and the mountains  providing a total escape from everyday concerns  but it also shows how the ancient world of the nomad is under threat as never before.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45792252067893,"sku":"ByrdShop_1398503428","price":335.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781398503427_572aed59-8191-4801-bafb-1198b5b7d776.jpg?v=1784746071","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/walking-with-nomads-9781398503427","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
